Residential Panel Upgrades St. Charles, Missouri
Electrical Panel Upgrades
An electrical panel is the nerve center of your home’s or business’s electrical system. It is also often referred to as a breaker box or fuse box. The panel regulates the flow of electricity throughout your property, and it is crucial that it be up to date and functioning properly at all times.
Power for your house comes in to the main electrical panel and from there is distributed throughout your house.
Under normal dry conditions your electric panel will last a long time. Your circuit breakers should last 30 to 40 years, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates.
However, there are reasons why you may want or need to upgrade your electrical panel sooner.
Signs that Indicate it’s Time for Panel Upgrades
Your Home or Business Is Frequently Experiencing Power Outages
If you find that your power is going out on a regular basis, this is a surefire sign that your electrical panel needs to be upgraded. A professional electrician will be able to determine if this is indeed the case and make the necessary recommendations.
You frequently Blow Fuses or Trip Circuit Breakers
If you find yourself having to reset circuit breakers or replace blown fuses frequently, this could also be a sign that your electrical panel needs to be replaced or upgraded.
Your Home Is More than 40 Years Old
The lifespan of an electrical panel is around 40 years. If your home is older than this, it is likely time for an upgrade.
Your Home Is Going Through a Renovation
If you are planning any type of renovation, regardless of how big or small, it is always best to err on the side of caution and ensure panel upgrades before work begins. This will ensure that your home’s electrical needs can be met during and after the renovation.
